junction. If the next turn is at a distance, it will zoom out and lower the view angle to
flat in order to let you see the road in front of you.
4.4.3 Daylight and night color schemes
The different color schemes let you adjust Touch & Go Navigator to the brightness of
the environment. Use the daylight and night color schemes accordingly. Daylight
colors are similar to paper roadmaps, while the night color schemes use dark tints for
large objects to keep the average brightness of the screen low, with carefully
selected colors to still keep you informed about all the necessary information on the
screen.
You can change between day and night views manually in the Quick Menu (4.7.2.3)
or let Touch & Go Navigator do it automatically (5.1.3) for you.
Note: The automatic day/night mode is based upon the current date and GPS
position by which Touch & Go Navigator calculates the exact sunrise and sunset
times on the particular day at the particular location. Using that information Touch &
Go Navigator can automatically switch between the color schemes a few minutes
before sunrise, when the sky has already turned bright, and a few minutes after
sunset before it gets dark.
Tip: There are several daytime and night color schemes included with Touch & Go
Navigator. To select the one that suits your needs the best, make your selection in
Settings (5.2.1).
Note: The colors mentioned and screenshots included in this manual refer to the
default daytime and night color schemes. They may not look the same in the
schemes you have chosen.
Tip: If you use Touch & Go Navigator after sunrise or before sunset, look for the sun
in the sky in the map background using a flat 3D view. It is displayed at its actual
position to give you another way to orientate, and also to provide some eye candy.
